   I use both 040 NeXT and 000 Amiga, at least 4 hours a day, and
   YES, faster GUI definately makes difference to the productivity.
   It is annoying when I have full of ideas in my brain and when I
   pull down the dock to make some more room, the disk spins for
   10-20 seconds....

I noticed that too.  This is of course attributable to paging and not
Display Postscript.  This doesn't always happen, of course.
Fortunately, it's not something you need to do all of the time.  But
if it was, it would be swapped in so it would be instaneous the next
time, assuming that it didn't get paged out again.
